Abstract(s)
A influência dos conteúdos produzidos pelos órgãos de comunicação social (OCS) sobre o comportamento humano tem gerado activo debate e sido alvo de intensa investigação académica. Na sociedade actual, sedenta de informação, os OCS tornam-se cada vez mais importantes, dada a sua capacidade de criar realidades através dos conteúdos transmitidos nas notícias e de condicionar a percepção dos telespectadores sobre quais os assuntos tidos como socialmente importantes. Atendendo a que o Estado Português é a entidade responsável por garantir a segurança dos seus cidadãos e delega nas suas polícias tais funções, uma das tarefas da Polícia de Segurança Pública é garantir a ordem e a tranquilidade públicas da sociedade que serve. Para muitas pessoas, a única forma de contactar e se informar sobre a actividade policial é através dos OCS. Como tal, foi realizado este estudo exploratório sobre as notícias transmitidas pelos canais televisivos (RTP1, SIC e TVI), no contexto do policiamento de grandes eventos de cariz político, que tiveram lugar durante o ano de 2012. Através da análise do seu conteúdo, tentou-se perceber que tipo de informação é disponibilizada por estes OCS, fornecendo grelhas que facilitam a compreensibilidade das actividades policiais. Entre os principais resultados alcançados verifica-se que os canais televisivos dedicam a maioria do tempo de antena à explicação, caracterização e descrição dos acontecimentos e que as principais fontes utilizadas são os membros do governo.
The influence of the contents produced by the media concerning human behaviour has generated active debate and has been the target of intense academic research. In today's society, eager for information, the media become increasingly important, for its ability to create realities through the contents broadcasted on their news and by conditioning the perception of its viewers about the issues which are socially important. Given that the Portuguese State is responsible for ensuring the safety of its citizens and the police assign such functions, one of the tasks of the Portuguese Security Police is to ensure public order and tranquility of the society it serves. For many people, the only way to contact and get information about police activities is through the media. As such, this exploratory study was carried out considering the news broadcasted by television networks (RTP1, SIC, and TVI) concerning policing in major political events, during the year 2012. Through content analysis, we tried to apprehend what kind of information is made available by these media, providing grids that facilitate the comprehensibility of the police activities. Among the main results it appears that the television networks devote the majority of airtime to the explanation, characterization and description of the events and the main sources used are the members of the government.
